I got 40 points less than i needed, got rejected and then applied through clearing. Stupid system that they have but I guess I was the lucky one with my mum nagging me to apply through clearing
.
I was too late to apply for halls as I was meant to be doing a snowboard season so I ended up in a house with a load of 3rd years. Was good because I was like the baby to them and they basically did everything for me. If you have already applied you should be okay I´m not to sure how the whole halls accommodation works.
The best halls to be in are,
Francis Drake, Radnor and Discovery Heights in my opinion, although they are the most expensive and Discovery Heights is private.
But whatever hall you are in you will have an amazing time.
My mates that I´m living with next year were in Gilwell, nicknamed "the ghetto". Its the smallest halls and doesn't look to pleasant but you can throw some great per-drinks in there as long as the wardens don´t catch yo past 11pm. My mates flat was known as the party flat haha.
But yeah basically if you dont get in ring up clearing and see if they still have spaces on the course then if not ring up the business school, and preferably try and speak to Gordon, he is the programme leader. He´s really nice and will try and help you out. If not look at other unis offering the same course through clearing, when I was applying theres Leeds Met, East Anglia, Hertfordshire, Kent, etc.
